​Born in the Midwest, I found myself starting over when a move South at 40yrs brought unexpected challenges, including exposure to a deep struggle with control. What I learned through that season prepared me for another turning point, a cancer diagnosis at 47yrs that profoundly challenged and deepened my faith. In surrender, I discovered strength and in that strength, a calling.​

Over the past nine years, I’ve co-developed healthy care-partner programs and pioneered mental health initiatives within both community and church settings.  Within my practice, client sessions reflects a blend of coaching insight, spiritual grounding, and lived experience, a holistic approach that honors both the science of the mind and the care of the soul. At the clients request, I now offer six Empowering Assessments that help them more objectively assess where they and establish next steps to where they're going. ​
